Team News: Gary Hooper starts for Norwich City

Hooper starts for Norwich

Norwich City manager Chris Hughton has handed a start to new signing Gary Hooper for their final pre-season game against Panathinaikos.

The former Celtic forward will start as a lone striker, with Martin Olsson, who has been brought in from Blackburn Rovers, earning a chance on the left wing.

Dutch duo Ricky van Wolfswinkel and Leroy Fer can only earn a place on the bench, as does former Birmingham City winger Nathan Redmond.

Panathinaikos include midfielder Mehdi Abeid in their lineup, having recently loaned him from Newcastle United.

Norwich City: Ruddy; Martin, Turner, R Bennett, Garrido; Snodgrass, Tettey, Johnson, Olsson; Hoolahan; Hooper

Panathinaikos: Kapino; Koutroumpis, Da Silva, Lagos, Bajrami, Marinakis, Kapelis, Abeid, Maroto, Schildenfend, Ntinas
